Dear Friends, By now you all must have got to know about the conviction of Dr. Binayak Sen u/s of 120(B), 124(A) of the IPC and 1,2,3,5, Chattisgarh Special Public Security Act and SEc 39 (2) of the UAPA (2004 amended). The court has not yet pronounced the sentence. We are waiting for that. Binayak was taken away immediately into custody. He was extremely equanmous. It was an emotional moment for Dr. Sen's daughters and brother Dipanker. Ilina ofcourse is upset but thinking ahead. This judgement is really unacceptable and unconstitutional. After all two of the laws under which he has been convicted are themselves being questioned as far as their constitutional validity is concerned. We need to know the nature of the sentence inorder to know whether we can apply for bail. 124(a) has imprisonment upto life, so does sec 39(2) of the UAPA. bail can only be applied if the sentence is upto three years. Well, we need to really build a campaign again. there was really no evidence, however, it is a bit too early to say what arguments the judge has given to reach this conclusion. We have to wait an hour or so. Dr. Binayak Sen will appeal in the High Court at the earliest. The other two co-accused Piyush Guha and Narayan Sanyal have also been convicted. some extra sections have been applied narayan Sanyal.

The Nazis got these lists with the help of IBM which was in the 'census' business that included racial census that entailed not only count the Jews but also identifying them. At the United States Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC, there is an exhibit of an IBM Hollerith D-11 card sorting machine that was responsible for organising the census of 1933 that first identified the Jews. *SAY NO TO UID CAMPAIGN- SPREAD THE WORD AND JOIN FB GROUP* *http://aadhararticles.blogspot.com/ http://questioningaadhaar.blogspot.com/* http://www.youtube.com/my_playlists?p=B67A798223F96E73 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "humanrights movement" group.
